I'm curious. Is Eli's weird little familiar from Maure Castle going to become some sort of mascot or something like that for the magazine? Rel has made several appearances since issue #112 (see pg 95 in #117 for example) and is kinda cute in a creepy, evil, one-eyed sort of way, so I was just wondering about any future plans for the little guy.

Actually... we do have Rel's application in for official Dungeon mascot, and he did make it through the first round of interviews. He's up against some tough competition, though, what with Lumbie the Reptile Boy, Warduke, and the break-out star of issue #118...
Well, James, although I may be quite biased (the Warduke cover was my idea - mercifully accepted by Erik, and masterfully painted by Wayne Reynolds) I have to say IT'S WARDUKE ALL THE WAY BABY!
How can you argue with a guy in dragon-winged helmet?

If you want to tell Warduke he gets to be mascot instead of GRAND HIERARCH BLOOD OVERLORD OF PAIZO, go for it. Just give me a little advance warning so I'll know to call in sick that day.
And anyway, what's to say that Warduke and Rel aren't the same person? Have you ever seen them illustrated together? Maybe when Warduke takes off his helm it's revealed those red eyes are a trick, and in truth he's got just one big blinker.
